Answer:

12.37 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse(c): the ladder

Cathetus: the wall (a=12) and the floor (b=3)

Equation:

c^{2} =a^{2} +b^{2}

c^{2} =(12)^{2}+ (3)^{2} =144+9

c^{2} =153

c=\sqrt{153}

c=12.37

The ladder is 12.37 feet long

Hope this helps

the length of a rectangle is 2 times in width if the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 in find its length and width​
Basile [38]

Answer:

Length=12 inches Width=6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

X can stand for the width. 2x can stand for the length since it is twice the width. The perimeter would then equal 6x. 6x is equal to 36. Divide by 6 to isolate x. X equals 6 inches. So twice the width would be 12 inches.

Answer:

A. is incorrect. He has to divide 76 by 19, instead of subtracting 19 to 76.

B. This equation has one solution. v=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, Martin’s answer is incorrect.

A. He has to divide 76 by 19, instead of subtract 19 to 76.

The correct steps are:

19v = 76  

Since 19 is multiplying the variable, to eliminate it we have to divide by 19.

v = 76/19

v = 4

B. This equation has one solution. It’s v=4
